Cal Crutchlow is looking for a good finish to the season with his Yamaha Sterilgarda team as the Brit gets set to compete in the last round of the 2010 World Superbike Championship at Magny Cours in France before he moves to MotoGP in 2011.
The Silverstone race winner started from 12th on the grid at Imola last weekend to secure a podium finish in race two with an incredible ride, he now sits fifth place in the standings on 239 points, 35 behind Carlos Checa in fourth
"I'm all set to go this weekend after Imola," said Cal Crutchlow. "The last Italian round was tough with the strange starting grid, but we had a great set up on what was a difficult track. I was really happy with the podium we scored and I'm confident if we can get a good grid start on Sunday in Magny Cours I can end the year with the Yamaha superbike team on a high with more podiums!" Crutchlow said.
Team mate James Toseland experience a continued run of bad luck last weekend with two DNFs despite showing strong, podium contending pace in the early stages of each race.
Toseland sits in seventh with 187 points, 51 points behind Noriyuki Haga in sixth, so no chance to move up the rankings
"It was a really disappointing race weekend in Italy," said James Toseland. "I am determined to go to Magny Cours for my last two races on the R1 and deliver good results. I have always been lucky at the French circuit, after a year if lots of bad luck I think we deserve some good luck here! We had really good pace at Imola in the races and had found a great set up so I want to use that to score in France."
